Sorry for that misundersating > In my rc.conf (FreeBSD 4.2) i have indeed the following line: > ifconfig_fxp1="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" Did a thinking and found a possible error: With TP cable connected to switch (same with hub): xl0: flags=8843 media: autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active ^^^^^ The end of this line tells me that cable is connected. If I pull the TP plug status will change to: status: no carrier So, between the second NAT server and the client inside this, do you use the correct cables? (hub,switch indicate connected network card?) If you are using TP directly between the machines, remember the cable needs to be a crossover. That should solve the problem. If it didn't, send the output of "ifconfig fxp1". PeTe (I'm covering all options, so if this you know you need crossovers bear with me) > thanks > > PS.. one transiver.. > > > Quoting Per Tore Larsen : > > > > > > The problem is that the when I give on PC3 "ifconfig fxp1" > > > (my second network card that gives to PC4) I get the > > > frustrating message "no > > > carrier". > > Ok.. now when you say "ifconfig fxp1" is that the hole line > > or is it more like > > 1) "ifconfig fxp1 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" > > or in /etc/rc.conf > > 2) ifconfig_fxp1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" > > > > Also has the card more than 1 transiver?
